I love shopping on Etsy. It’s the best thing to happen to the indie craft scene.  And I’m loving all the local Etsy artists that are banding together to promote the handmade movement, like the Etsy Dallas team is doing. This talented group of more than 50 crafters is putting on their first annual spring show (lucky you, Dallas!).

Next Saturday, May 16 is the team’s Spring Dash Craft Show in Dallas, Texas.
